Friday evening, we went into Waxhaw to have a special dinner–ice cream! We were celebrating the completion of a week of changes, shifts, new schedules, new living arrangements and pretty much everything else. Everyone had a couple scoops of their favorite flavor from the Waxhaw Creamery, and it was pretty yummy.
We all enjoyed our ice cream from the Waxhaw Creamery. It was hard to get a shot with everyone looking at Daddy–there was ice cream to be eaten, after all!
After the end-of-week celebration, we made our way back to the apartment, where Dale put the kids to bed while Miranda met a fellow Wycliffe friend from a nearby city for dinner and quality hang-out time. After I put the boys to bed, Phoenix and I played a few rounds of Uno. She won all three games. I went to check on the twins, and they were NOT asleep.
Nightcrawler (top) “reads” one of our Curious George books to Beast (bottom). They were supposed to be going to sleep. It was so beautiful a moment that I didn’t have the heart to change it, so I grabbed the camera instead.
When I walked into the room, I saw they had turned on the lamp and were “reading” a Curious George book. They hadn’t gotten out of bed, but were not going to sleep. I started to reach for the lamp, but Beast asked me to let them finish reading. I couldn’t resist.
Today I went on a men’s outing with the group, to a go-kart racing/putt-putt place in Charlotte. It was fun, but not too many photos from the driver’s seat. Tomorrow, we visit a church in Charlotte that serves an French-speaking African community here. This church will be our home-away-from-home for the next month.
Just like their daddy. Technically I am in bed!
that ice cream looks delicious! Sounds like you guys are having a great time.
